DAY 20

Get Back On Track
You know by experience that there is a point in your "diet"
that the energy wains, the motivation lags...you just run out of the ability to keep it up and you have a bad day ...or days... Actually its just true of any attempt to do what you are supposed to. We fail. It is life.
The gospel says that failure is a part of this journey. Christ came and did not fail because we did. And do. This forgiveness and love gives us the ability to persevere on our journey of living for Jesus, not for ourselves. It gives us the freedom and joy to obey.
His holy spirit also HELPS us. He is in us with His life, power and attributes!
If you slip read yourself a truth card:

If I've eaten something I shouldn't, I haven't blown it. I can start following my plan
again right this minute. (Don't try to make up for the eating just continue your plan as long as you are hungry enough to eat what you planned) Remember the goal is not perfection..the goal is living for Jesus and this is part of living for Jesus. You are doing it!!!
